Regular Season Round 32: Kataja - Lahti 91-86
Date: February 8, 2020
Rather expected game in Joensuu where 9th ranked Lahti (11-20) was defeated by sixth ranked Kataja (15-15) 91-86. The hosts were tied after three quarters but managed to speed up in last quarter eventually winning the game. Kataja dominated down low during the game scoring 50 of its points in the paint compared to Lahti's 28. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 24 assists. Kataja brought some defensive toughness making 7 blocks. American guard Earvin Morris (196-94, college: UTEP) orchestrated the victory with a double-double by scoring 20 points, 7 rebounds and 12 assists. The other American import swingman Jarekious Bradley (196-90, college: SEMO) contributed with a double-double by scoring 19 points, 12 rebounds and 4 blocks for the winners. The former international point guard Tuomas Hirvonen (181-96, agency: HMS) replied with 15 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists and American forward Taylor Johns (201-94, college: UC Riverside, agency: Slash Sports) added 17 points and 6 rebounds in the effort for Lahti. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Kataja maintains sixth position with 15-15 record. Newly promoted Lahti keeps the ninth place with 20 games lost. Kataja's next round opponent will be higher ranked KTP Basket (#4) in Kotka and it may be quite challenging game. Lahti will play at home against Kauhajoki (#3) and hope to win that game.
